CAP Barbell Rubber Olympic Bumper Plate | Multiple Options/Colors

I had bought 10 a year ago I put them in the garage to off gas for about 2 weeks when I brought them in they still stunk up the house a little bit like brand new tires but I've been really really happy with them they're easy to clean I wiped them down with coconut oil once a month really lightly and that keeps the shine on and makes them look brand new plus now they smell good. I realized when I bought 20 more today that when I off gas them in the garage I had them on the cardboard but I didn't flip them over in a week so I think that's why they smelled for a little while so this time I'm going to let them go about 2 weeks and then flip them over in the cardboard and let that go about 2 weeks. Once the smell dissipates these things are amazing they're easy to handle they're comfortable and they look really good. When the Amazon driver pulled up I expected them to be damaged just because they're awkward and nobody treats them very well I was pleasantly surprised when every single one of them that came out was 100% perfect they have the triangles on the ends so that they don't move into shipping and they're wrapped in plastic overall these have exceeded my expectations if you're thinking about getting them due they're completely amazing

I bought 4 of these 45 lb CAP Economy Bumpers when they were on sale around Christmas last year. I already owned 4 x 45 in iron, so this purchase completed my gym’s wheels needs. They arrived quickly, were in individual boxes, that were all fine from being shipped. They were covered in the expected oils from the release agents and other stuff involved in the manufacturing processes. I cleaned them up with simple green and a rag. But it took 2-3 times. They had a bit of smell as well which I expected. So I left them out on the porch to off gas, and cleaned them each evening of oils that had seeped out. They are accurate in terms of weight, and hole size. They are quality plates that will last me a very long time as the sole user. If you keep them clean, gripping them is no problem. If you do not clean these, you will find your hands get oily from grabbing them off the rack or bar, and that’ll make your grip not so grippy. They will also if not cleaned become covered in dust, dirt, hair, and other debris from the floor. Like ewwww. On one of mine, the lettering came smudged, with the blue of the lettering partially rubbed off. I elected to just keep it. I expect that to happen over time with these from normal use and I can still see it is a 45. Overall I am still very pleased with my purchase. Getting these protects my floors from any drops of a barbell. That’s my favorite thing about these, with the silence they bring being a very close second. I would def buy these again if I ever needed more 45s.

Simple 15lb plates, nothing special, they feel nice and stay on the barbell nicely, should fit most or all barbells, ive used these on (25lb-45lb) barbells. Sturdy, obviously not gonna break or anything and would much rather use these than metal plates. They overall look good and feel good.

Good price and so far no quality issues. As others commented there is a strong odor when first unpacking. It does go away. It also seems oily, again, when first unpacking. I washed with dawn soap and it was no longer an issue. So while the harsh remarks on the odor and oilyiness are valid I found washing with dawn and giving it a day or 2 it is no more an issue then any other plastic weight.

These do the job but OMG the off gassing was terrible for the past few months lol. It stuck up my whole apartment. I kept having to move them outside to the patio to air out. I also was wrapping them in plastic bags when they were inside. They took forever to stop stinking. Even now they smell slightly but not nearly as bad. If you dont wana deal with the smell i suggest getting something else. Otherwise these worked great for my hip thrust machine and I am happy with them.

One of the alleged trade-offs of less expensive bumper plate weights is that they’re not verified to be within a specific weight tolerance, such as within 2% of the labeled weight. Well, these seem to be pretty solid. Although I used my home scales to weigh them, and my home skills could be off by a 1% or 2%, I weighed each bumper plate and each bumper plate weighed the same up to 1/10th of a pound, which is as small a value as my digital scales can go. In other words, thirty both weighed the same. So although I cannot say whether or not they weigh exactly 45 lbs each, I can say that both of my plates weighed the same. To me I’d much rather have 2 plates 45 lbs plates that weight the same but might actually be 44 for one and 45 lbs for another. This way the weight on the bar is balanced. And at about $1/lbs, this is a great value in my view. I’m not competing, so I don’t care if they’re both a few ounces light or heavy. But for all I know, they’re dead-on. Some people complain about the smell or oil on them. This is common with this type of rubber material; I’ve had it on dumbbells as well. One of my 45 pound plates had a little more residue on it but the other was pretty much dry, but neither one had any significant amount. I didn’t even think it was enough to worry about wiping off. Any robbery scent in the air after opening them will fade pretty quickly. The weights easily fit onto my Olympic 2” barbell(s) and don’t slide around excessively. I can definitely recommend these for personal use. I think I’m going to order some 25s and 10s next, after that I’ve seen the 45s quality. Time will tell about how well they hold up with the ring inside of them, but if there’s any issues with that, I’ll update accordingly.

Ok, so everybody knows Cap for making very decent gym related products with very friendly pricing. picked up a set of 15’s. weighing them, they are spot on and are nice quality for home gym use. these get the job done, look good, but cannot be compared to commercial grade and you shouldnt expect them to. this kind of sounds bad but it isn’t, these plates really are great, i just dont think they would hold up to dozens of people using, dropping and abusing them all day every day in a commercial gym setting. they wont be used like that in a home gym. i almost took a star off for one reason. the plates come nicely packaged in a box with foam surrounding the vox corbers and each plate in a plastic bag. when i opened the box i was immediately hit with a strong rubber and oil smell and could see the plates were covered in an oily film through the bag. i wiped them down with paper towels and then a microfiber cloth with windex and they were still a little greasy feeling. this film will eventually evaporate out, but there is quite a noticeable smell in my garage gym. having had cap plates before this film and smell dissapates over the coming days, but i never saw so much of this oil on their plates before. just a bit of inconvenience but in the end the plates function as i would expect them. in the pic i submitted for this review i am using an adapter on the plate to fit my open trap which uses standard 1 inch plates.

Couldn't be happier especially for the price. People mentioned the oil and the smell and both were not nearly as bad as other reviews had led me to believe. Smell is mild, like being in a hardware store. Specifically being in a Harbor freight. Oil was easily dealt with using a microfiber towel. Overall very pleased.

Los discos cumplen de buena forma... Para empezar podrían dudar en comprarlos por el tamaño, que según la información son más grandes que el estándar de la IWF/IPF (450mm) pero de hecho, su diámetro SI MIDE ESO (450mm). Pongo unas fotos junto a unos Ironside para corroborar. Para el gym bro casual van execelentes lo único tal vez negativo, es eso que señalan otras reseñas sobre el aceite que tienen y el olor que desprenden, pero con bastantes sanitas se les quita Si son Powerlifters, también podrían servirles, ya que son bastantes delgados para ser bumpers y como ya mencioné si cumplen con el diámetro estándar Para Halteristas y Crossfiters... Van bien si tienen plataforma para levantamientos, no son apropiados para dejar caer sobre concreto e incluso suelo con caucho, tiene muy poco rebote y la info no lo menciona pero su escala shore debe ser alta, como 90 tal vez y si los usan fuera de una plataforma el collar central se pude aflojar

I ordered two of these plates. At the time the limit was 3 which is very frustrating. Who needs an odd number of plates? Anyway, one came a few days and the other came a week later. Weird, but still in the window of the delivery dates. As others have noted, they do come a bit slippery. Overall very happy for the price. It is not a high quality product for which you would pay at least double the price, but worth what I paid for sure. I recommend waiting and checking the website periodically as the price seems to change quite often. Would purchase again.

Great plates and got them at a sale price. Only downside is the smell which takes a few weeks to dissipate but after a month, a light smell lingers. To me, a burnt rubber or dirty ashtray smell. Too cold and snowy to put outside. But, I expected this from reading other reviews. Put an air cleaner in the room with them. Did not stop me from ordering another pair this week.

Peso concuerda y el material se siente de alta calidad

Great product, cheap too
